A GOOD IMPULSE
By MOLLIE MATHER.

Listeners, It Is said, seldom hour
good of themselves. But Natalie liatl
uo Intention to listen. She hud mere

before dressing for dinner. Neither
was it Natalies fuult that the corner
of the vei Hilda lind a Jutting wull

by, Here eat two locking old Indies.
"It Is too had." old Mrs. Gunthcr eulil,
"Hint Natalie Brooks hasn't a thought
iu the world beyond her own giod
looks and good times. That girl seems
to Just dance through the world, and
somebody, usually, pays the piper."
"Well," old Mrs. Dean submitted,
"Natalie's futher made his pile before
he died, and us her mother lives even
a more luxurious life than her daugh
ter, uo one apjM'iirs to suffer from her
Irresponsibility except herself."
The women arose and moved awny.
"Self centered?" Yes, she had been
always. Natalie could see that, but
everything conspired to make her so.
The very friends who admired and
planned for her pleasure; at least she
told herself defendingly, she was not
unappreclatlve of happiness, but It
seemed that one must pass on happi
ness If one would not luter find "lonely
hours." Natalie, her durk eyes wide
and serious, considered the question.
It seemed reasonable, one who did not
share what one had was selfish, and
selfish inions were not opt to be
continually sought. She must share
her happiness, then In some way
trance that this had not occurred to
her before. She turned Impulsively
to beckon to a white-faced girl who
came wearily up the walk.
"Where do you live when you are
at home, Freda T" said the newly awak
ened Natalie, "when you are not work
ing at the hotel as wol tress?"
Freda's pathetic blue eyes raced
wonderlngly. "1 live," answered Freda,
"In a crowded part of the city that,
you would not know, where many fam
ilies crowd In tenements. The visit
ing doctor found me this place to work
during August, because my health was
so poor. He was very kind. But lu
September I have to go back the ho
tel then closes."
Frvda half turned away.
"It must be nice," she added shyly,
"to tlo as one pleases."
Na'alle Jumped to her feet.
"What an eusy bupplness to give,"
she said.
"1 want to pass on some of my good
fortune," Natulie explained. "And I
did not know how to go ubout It. This
Is really my first good impulse. You
must let me help to nmke your wish
come true." It wus doubtful as weeks
pHsved, which of the two, mistress or
maid, were beneficiary. For so Freda
became, and In her rapidly returning
strength was gratefully willing to re
turn the kindness dally given. Ntita
lle, again on unwilling eavesdropper,
heard herself discussed. "She Is beau
tiful and bus undoubted charm,"
Wayne Southwlck, the admired bach
elor was saying, "but most society
women are like that no heart or' sta
bility beneath. I fight shy don't
want to run the risk of taking unto
myself a wife of that class."
Natalie, with hot cheeks, made her
way back to the hotel. . So, because
of her money they Judged her. Re
bellious tears rose to her eyes; the
young bouse doctor of the ho el gave
her a second glance as she paused in
the lighted doorway.
Natalie felt all at once strange and
sick. She approached the young doo
tor.
"I am 111. I think," she told him
weakly; "will you see me?"
Nodding curtly, he led the way to a
white fitted otMee, and he frowned as
he took her tenipemture and pulse.

"She Is always trlng to share hap

to talk to you about helping me on to
the nurse's profession. Please "
begged the grateful Freda, "let us, you

patient's blotched face, he uctually
laughed.
"Dread disease," he latifhed; "tills

this section. But we will take care
